Küchensession #177 | Billie Van feat. Jonas Alaska

The talented Billie Van manages to succeed in a variety of genres without ever losing her personal sound. From her first album you get the raw and cocky rockabilly flavoured “On My Knees” through to radio-hit-sweet-girly-pop-song “How Can It Be So Hard” and her newer more poppy releases like „I Just Wanna Be Your Doll“ and „Cool Your Soul“

Anyone who has experienced Billie and her band live in concert, knows that she is not afraid of showing explicit emotions on stage, and never leave a dull moment for the audience. Billie Van has emerged from a group of freakishly talented musicians, who teamed up at the LIPA academy in Liverpool. Guys like Mikhael Paskalev andJonas Alaska are both mainstays in Billies band, and both count Billie as a vital member of their own live acts. All three artists have developed a fresh retro sound that has caught on, both within and outside of their native Scandinavia the last few years. Billie herself is originally Norwegian, but lives lives in Copenhagen.
